CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a continuation application of PCT Application No. PCT/CN2019/087788 filed on May 21, 2019, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201810496793.9 filed in China on May 22, 2018, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of wireless communications technologies, and in particular, to a measurement reporting method, a measurement configuration method, a terminal, and a network side device.

BACKGROUND

A channel state information reference signal (Channel State Information Reference Signal, CSI-RS for short) is an existing concept in Long Term Evolution (Long Term Evolution, LTE for short). Because a concept of beam (beam) is introduced in new radio (New radio, NR for short), a CSI-RS may be used to indicate a beam because of a flexible configuration thereof. A synchronization signal block (synchronization signal block, SSB for short) is a new synchronous signal introduced in NR, and is periodically sent, where a period thereof may be configured. The SSB may also indicate a beam. Generally, the SSB may indicate a relatively wide beam, while the CSI-RS may indicate a relatively narrow beam. However, both can indicate a wide/narrow beam through a reasonable configuration.

A 5G NR system supports a maximum system bandwidth of 400 MHz that is much higher than a maximum system bandwidth of 20 MHz of LTE, to support a larger system and a higher user throughput. However, supporting such a higher system bandwidth is a great challenge to implementation of a terminal (User Equipment, UE for short), and is not conducive to implementation of a terminal at a low cost. Therefore, the 5G NR system also supports dynamic and flexible bandwidth allocation, and a system bandwidth is divided into a plurality of bandwidth parts (Bandwidth Part, BWP for short) to support access of a terminal user in a narrowband or a terminal user in an energy-saving mode.

One or more BWPs may be configured for a terminal on a network side, and a BWP that may be used by the terminal to work may be switched by activating or deactivating a BWP.

In LTE, existing measurement reporting is based on a measurement configuration, and a measurement result of a serving cell, including reference signal received power (Reference Signal Receiving Power, RSRP for short) and/or reference signal received quality (Reference Signal Receiving Quality, RSRQ for short) is reported.

In an NR system, because one or more BWPs may be configured for a terminal on a network side, currently, there is no final conclusion on how the terminal determines BWPs of which measurement results are reported.

Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a measurement reporting method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, applied to a terminal, and including:

Step 21: Report a measurement result of a reference signal of a first pre-defined (pre-defined) BWP.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, when one or more BWPs are configured on a network side for the terminal, the terminal reports the measurement result of the reference signal of the first pre-defined BWP of the one or more BWPs, and a manner of measurement reporting is defined for the terminal, thereby improving system performance.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the reference signal may include at least one of the following: a CSI-RS, a demodulation reference signal (Demodulation Reference Signal, DMRS for short), and an SSB.

There may be one or more first pre-defined BWPs. When there are a plurality of first pre-defined BWPs, a reference signal of each reported first pre-defined BWP may be the same or different. For example, two first pre-defined BWPs are included, where a reference signal of one reported first pre-defined BWP is a CSI-RS, and a reference signal of the other first pre-defined BWP is an SSB.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, when a plurality of BWPs are configured on the network side for the terminal, the terminal may measure reference signals of all of the plurality of BWPs, or may measure reference signals of some of the plurality of BWPs. This is not limited in the present disclosure.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, when the terminal measures a plurality of BWPs, some of the plurality of measured BWPs may be used as the first pre-defined BWP for reporting, or measurement results of reference signals of all the measured BWPs may be reported.

To be specific, before step 21, that is, before the step of reporting a measurement result of a reference signal of a first pre-defined BWP, the method further includes:

Step 201: Measure a reference signal of a second pre-defined BWP, to obtain a measurement result.

The second pre-defined BWP may be all the BWPs configured on the network side for the terminal, or may be some of all the BWPs configured on the network side for the terminal.

Step 202: Select at least one BWP from the second pre-defined BWP as the first pre-defined BWP.

That is, the first pre-defined BWP may be some BWPs of the second pre-defined BWP, or may be all BWPs of the second pre-defined BWP.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, information such as BWPs of which reference signals need to be measured by the terminal, and/or BWPs of which measurement results of reference signals need to be reported by the terminal may be configured on the network side, or may be stipulated in a protocol.

To be specific, before step 201, that is, before the step of measuring a reference signal of a second pre-defined BWP, the method may further include:

determining the to-be-measured second pre-defined BWP and the reference signal of the to-be-measured second pre-defined BWP based on configuration information sent by a network side device, or based on protocol stipulation; and/or

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the network side device may configure the configuration information for the terminal through a measurement object (measurement Object, MO for short) or a measurement configuration (measurement configuration).

(1) a measurement result of a reference signal of any currently activated BWP.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, there may be one or more currently activated BWPs.

(2) measurement results of reference signals of all currently activated BWPs.

(3) a result obtained after combining measurement results of reference signals of all currently activated BWPs.

In (1) to (3), measurement is performed on an activated BWP. This can prevent the terminal from frequently switching a band.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, a master information block (master information block, MIB) and a system information block type 1 (System Information Block Type 1, SIB1) of system information are sent on the network side by using resources indicated by some SSBs. An SSB carrying MIB and SIB1 resources is referred to as a cell defining SSB (cell defining SSB, CD-SSB for short). The terminal in an idle state receives system information (SI) and paging (Paging) on a CD-SSB with a desirable channel condition. The terminal in a connected state performs radio link monitoring (Radio Link Monitor, RLM for short), beam failure detection (Beam Failure Detection, BFD for short), and the like on a CD-SSB.

(5) a measurement result of a reference signal of an activated BWP including a CD-SSB.

(6) measurement results of reference signals of all BWPs including a CD-SSB.

(7) a result obtained after combining measurement results of reference signals of all BWPs including a CD-SSB.

In (4) to (7), measurement is performed on a BWP including a CD-SSB. This can prevent the terminal from performing unnecessary switching in some conditions, for example, channel quality of the CD-SSB is undesirable.

(8) a measurement result of a reference signal of an activated third BWP, where the third BWP is a BWP including an SSB indicated as a reference signal of a serving cell.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, configuration information of the reference signal may include a parameter “a serving cell or not”. When “a serving cell or not” indicates “yes”, it indicates that the reference signal is a reference signal of a serving cell.

(9) a measurement result of a reference signal of any third BWP.

(10) measurement results of reference signals of all third BWPs.

(11) a result obtained after combining measurement results of reference signals of all third BWPs.

In (4) to (10), optionally, the reference signal of the BWP includes an SSB.

(12) a measurement result of a reference signal of an activated fourth BWP, where the fourth BWP is a BWP including a CSI-RS indicated as a reference signal of a serving cell.

(14) measurement results of reference signals of all fourth BWPs.

(15) a result obtained after combining measurement results of reference signals of all fourth BWPs.

In (12) to (15), optionally, the reference signal of the BWP includes a CSI-RS.

(16) measurement results of reference signals of all configured BWPs.

(17) a result obtained after combining measurement results of reference signals of all configured BWPs.

(18) a measurement result of a reference signal corresponding to a frequency that is configured on a network side and that is of a serving cell.

(19) a measurement result of a reference signal of a BWP on which a serving cell common configuration (Serving CellConfig Common) signaling message is located.

(20) a measurement result of a reference signal of a BWP meeting at least two of the following conditions, where a first condition is being activated currently, a second condition is including a CD-SSB, a third condition is including a CD-SSB and being activated currently, a fourth condition is including an SSB indicated as a reference signal of a serving cell and being activated currently, a fifth condition is including an SSB indicated as a reference signal of a serving cell, a sixth condition is including a CSI-RS indicated as a reference signal of a serving cell, a seventh condition is including a CSI-RS indicated as a reference signal of a serving cell and being activated currently, and an eighth condition is being used to transmit a serving cell common configuration signaling message.

For example, the first pre-defined BWP is a BWP meeting the second condition and the eighth condition, that is, the first pre-defined BWP is a BWP that is “used to transmit a serving cell common configuration signaling message” and that “includes a CD-SSB”.

In the foregoing embodiment, the result obtained after combining the measurement results may be: a linear average of all the measurement results (that is, a sum of all the measurement results divided by a quantity of the measurement results), or a weighted average of all the measurement results.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, because there are a plurality of to-be-selected measurement results, the terminal may determine a measurement result of a reference signal of a preferential to-be-measured BWP from the plurality of to-be-selected measurement results based on a configuration on the network side or protocol stipulation, to perform measurement. If the preferential to-be-measured BWP and/or the corresponding reference signal does not exist, another measurement result may be selected for measurement.

That is, the step of determining the to-be-measured second pre-defined BWP and the reference signal of the to-be-measured second pre-defined BWP may include:

Step 2001: Based on a first preset priority, determine a preferential to-be-measured second pre-defined BWP and a reference signal of the preferential to-be-measured second pre-defined BWP from the plurality of to-be-selected measurement results.

Step 2002: When the preferential to-be-measured second pre-defined BWP and/or the corresponding reference signal does not exist, select another measurement result from the to-be-selected measurement results, and determine the to-be-measured second pre-defined BWP and the reference signal of the to-be-measured second pre-defined BWP.

Specifically, when the preferential to-be-measured second pre-defined BWP and/or the corresponding reference signal does not exist, and another measurement result is selected from the to-be-selected measurement results, any one of other measurement results of the to-be-selected measurement results may be selected, or a second pre-defined BWP with a lower priority and a reference signal of the second pre-defined BWP with a lower priority may be determined based on a configuration on the network side or protocol stipulation, to perform measurement.

For example, when there is a to-be-selected measurement result (19), (19) is selected; otherwise, any one of (1) to (19) is selected.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, because there are a plurality of to-be-selected measurement results, the terminal may determine a measurement result of a reference signal of a preferential to-be-reported BWP from the plurality of to-be-selected measurement results based on a configuration on the network side or protocol stipulation, to perform reporting. If the measurement result of the reference signal of the preferential to-be-reported BWP does not exist, another measurement result may be selected for reporting.

That is, the step of determining the to-be-reported first pre-defined BWP and the measurement result of the reference signal of the to-be-reported first pre-defined BWP includes:

Step 2003: Based on a second preset priority, determine the measurement result of the reference signal of the preferential to-be-reported first pre-defined BWP from the plurality of to-be-selected measurement results.

Step 2004: When the measurement result of the reference signal of the preferential to-be-reported first pre-defined BWP does not exist, select another measurement result from the to-be-selected measurement results, and determine the measurement result of the reference signal of the to-be-reported first pre-defined BWP.

Specifically, when the measurement result of the reference signal of the preferential to-be-reported first pre-defined BWP does not exist, and another measurement result is selected from the to-be-selected measurement results, any one of other measurement results of the to-be-selected measurement results may be selected, or a measurement result of a reference signal of a first pre-defined BWP with a lower priority may be determined based on a configuration on the network side or protocol stipulation, to perform reporting.

For example, when there is a to-be-selected measurement result (19), (19) is selected; otherwise, any one of (1) to (19) is selected.

As a type of motion sensor, an accelerometer sensor can detect accelerations in all directions (generally, three axes), and can detect the magnitude and direction of gravity when it is still. The accelerometer sensor may be configured to: identify a terminal posture (for example, switching between a landscape mode and a portrait mode, related games, and magnetometer posture calibration), perform a vibration identification-related function (for example, a pedometer and a knock), and the like.

An embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a computer readable storage medium, where the computer readable storage medium stores a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by a processor, the processes of the embodiments of the foregoing measurement configuration method are implemented, and the same technical effects can be achieved. To avoid repetition, details are not described herein again.

The computer readable storage medium is, for example, a read-only memory (Read-Only Memory, ROM for short), a random access memory (Random Access Memory, RAM for short), a magnetic disk, or an optical disc.

It should be noted that in this specification, the term “comprise”, “include”, or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, a method, an article, or an apparatus that includes a series of elements not only includes these elements, but also includes other elements not clearly listed, or includes elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. Without being subject to further limitations, an element defined by a phrase “including a . . . ” does not exclude presence of another identical element in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes the element.

By means of the foregoing description of the implementations, a person skilled in the art may clearly understand that the methods in the foregoing embodiments may be implemented by software combined with a necessary general hardware platform. Certainly, the methods in the foregoing embodiments may also be implemented by hardware. However, in many cases, the former is a preferred implementation. Based on such an understanding, the technical solutions of the present disclosure essentially, or the part contributing to the prior art may be implemented in a form of a software product. The computer software product is stored in a storage medium (for example, a ROM/RAM, a magnetic disk, or an optical disc), and includes several instructions for enabling a terminal (which may be a mobile phone, a computer, a server, an air conditioner, a network device, or the like) to perform the methods described in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

The embodiments of the present disclosure are described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present disclosure is not limited to the foregoing specific implementations. The foregoing specific implementations are merely illustrative instead of restrictive. Under enlightenment of the present disclosure, a person of ordinary skills in the art can make many forms without departing from the objectives of the present disclosure and the protection scope of claims, and these forms all fall within the protection of the present disclosure.
